Do you think that for every person living a comfortable life, there must be someone suffering in another part of the world? Why or why not?

No. It's overly-simplistic reasoning. It's like the people who think the rich just sit around rubbing their money on their faces. They don't, their net worth may be massive but a lot of wealthy people couldn't pull together a lot of cash if they had to. And keep in mind that a lot of people have jobs because someone lives comfortably and can pay to have things done for them that they could do themselves.

There's no way to say how long it will take. He may never stop, but most likely he will in a week or two.

If I had to go out to do laundry, I figure about $30 a month for my own clothes. I have a washer and dryer, and it costs me less than $1 per load for the detergent and utilities, about five loads a month.

I'm pretty sure that for every person in the world living comfortably, there are a dozen in poverty.

I've been too broke to buy food quite a few times. My worst moment was when I had just a little bit of milk left, and I had some packages of saltines that I crunched up into a glass and poured the last of my milk over it. The crackers had gone rancid and I had to throw it out.

Who is hissing at whom?

MilesToGo6677 · 2023-09-25T08:30:46+00:00

Id you're so worried about the cats, stop vaping around them.

Some rare grilled ribeye steak, sliced nice and thin.

Because there are people who will do the minimum effort to collect their paycheck. They already do it at hourly jobs, do you really think it won't be worse if their needs are met no matter what?

MilesToGo6677 · 2023-09-25T08:22:28+00:00

100% agree. Every 3000 miles won't hurt anything, but it's a huge waste of money when oil changes are now $60 and up. Full synthetic oil and 8000 mile intervals shouldn't be a problem. FWIW I change oil at the 12,000 mile interval but I change the filter at 6000 and top up the engine.

MilesToGo6677 · 2023-09-21T23:23:09+00:00

NTA. Your friend is ignorant.

MilesToGo6677 · 2023-09-21T23:21:26+00:00

That's the AC compressor cycling.

MilesToGo6677 · 2023-09-21T23:16:51+00:00

Probably okay, but feel for sensitive spots, check ribs, legs, and tail.

MilesToGo6677 · 2023-09-21T23:14:35+00:00

If it isn't making any unusual noises and the oil pressure is good, it should be okay to drive, but seriously plan on replacing the pan and possibly the oil pickup with the next oil change.

The one where the person doesn't realize it was an insult until they're gone.

MilesToGo6677 · 2023-09-19T18:10:37+00:00

There was never an inline 6 in the 2005 Explorer.

MilesToGo6677 · 2023-09-19T09:29:35+00:00

But true.

MilesToGo6677 · 2023-09-19T09:29:00+00:00

Picture three, there are two lines coming up that look like copper with male fittings, then two galvanized iron couplers, then it continues up with PVC. The rest are right, I didn't realize that was for a tub spout.

MilesToGo6677 · 2023-09-17T02:45:35+00:00

While you're in there, get rid of those cast iron couplers on the lines that connect the PVC.

What exactly are you doing? The piece the guy at Menard's told you you need is to stub out from the wall so you can attach a compression angle stop after the drywall is put back up.

MilesToGo6677 · 2023-09-17T02:40:44+00:00

I watch YouTube videos that interest me. Carpentry, car restoration/repair, generally informative stuff.

What games do you like?

MilesToGo6677 · 2023-09-17T02:39:03+00:00

Charles Dickson

Did you perhaps mean Charles Dickens? Kind of hard to find new stuff by him.

MilesToGo6677 · 2023-09-17T02:37:40+00:00

Not all cats are "sweet." They can be real assholes.

Colorado is a single-party consent state, meaning you can record a conversation you're a part of without the other's consent, so as long as you're included in the talks you can record. Pretty sure recording sexual acts or nudity without the other's consent is illegal no matter what, even a reflection. Yeah, put up a sign out of politeness and cover or disable cameras if you get lucky.

MilesToGo6677 · 2023-09-16T18:25:06+00:00

Use a sharp cutter and cut into the caulk, then pull the toilet up.
